Looks great man!
You're gonna be disappointed with those stock non-IC sticks! Does not respond to pump tweaks NEARLY as much as your non ic truck. You've probably driven other trucks though....
Love the dually... you're gonna want a big trailer now!

Nice find !
Put some wd-40 on that drivers side seat, and it will be as good as new...
Good luck with it. Looks like a good start for a restoration.

9MM, If anything it will see more sled action, I would actually prefer this was a N/IC truck IMO the make a better platform for performance.
Jim, This truck was originally bought by a construction company out in Colorado and the A scrapper/farmer had it and thats who I got it from, Neither are known for taking good care of vehicles.
Here in Nebraska it shouldn't be a problem to get it tagged, IMO it should have never gotten a salvage title for what happend to it.
Subliminal, I said the Rag is decent but it is by no means fantastic, It will need syncros. And I just like the way 4500s shift better
Crossy boy, The truck was originaly blue, the PO painted it red, I'll probly paint it back the original blue with a tan bottom, should look real sharp with the spice interior. Yes Plans include about 2" of lift to get it back to factory hieght and 255s will go on when funds allow.
dzl_damon, I'll probly end up doin a 370 or somthing for a stick

Well busted out the big bottle of turd polish.
Got the Alcoas on today, fixed the cab light, adjusted the throttle linkage and started cleaning the interior. Also picked up a decent set of Grey buckets and console for a gov spring job, These seats will just be temporary till I find a nice set of spice seats or I get a set recovered.
Plans for tommorow include a Gov spring job, a little powerwashing and I'm gonna pull the running boards and put a set of steps on. I'll also put new seats in.
Couple pics
